An angry laugh escaped Inez “Mom, did you really just give me this Is Kieran your long-lost son? Is that why you like him so much”

Madelyn sighed. “My sweetheart, you’re not that young anymore. Give it a few more years, and you’re going to be a hag Although Mr Kieran didn’t realize his feelings for you previously and rejected your courtship, he has been bravely courting you after realizing the feelings he had for you. He’s been trying really hard too, and I noticed his efforts. He’s the most suitable man for you. Your dad and I will be at ease if we let him have your hand in marriage.”

Once Madelyn was done with her speech, she tiptoed away from the room.

Inez stared at the small package in her hand. When those steamy scenes flashed across her mind, she blushed from her neck to her ears.

Turning around to look at the drunk Kieran, she found herself hesitant.

Am I really going to do this?

As that thought floated in her mind, she walked over to the bedside and gazed at him for a while.

The angel and the devil on her shoulders were fighting against each other.

After sitting by the bedside for a few quiet minutes, her rationality won.

Tossing the condom into the trash can, she wrung the towel and started wiping Kieran’s body and face again.

The man was too heavy for her.

By the time she was done cleaning him up, she was exhausted.

At that point, she prayed never to encounter a drunk Kieran again.

Panting, she tucked him into bed again before turning her head to the wardrobe, thinking of getting two beddings to sleep on the floor.

But just as she moved to stand up, Kieran grabbed her arm.

The slumbering man subconsciously pulled her into his arms to hug her as if she was a bolster.

“Kieran?” she softly called out.

Her whisper did not elicit any reaction, which meant that he was truly asleep this time.

She then tried to pry his arm away, but he was simply too heavy. Her efforts were fruitless.
